Take the inside trim off that covers the hatch latch/lock.

Unscrew the black plasctic wingnuts (some hidden under spare tire cover & rear compartment trim)

Then pull the lights out

You have to take out all the plastic trim pieces in the trunk area. Once you have that off, you'll see a bunch of plastic "wing" nuts. Unscrew the ones that corrispond with the light you want to take off. Then the light assembly comes off from the outside. There will be 3 main light plugs. Pull out the one that you want to replace and then reverse the procedure. It's very simple. Should take 5 minutes at the most!!!
